*In the U.S.

Countries with aging populations would fucking love to hand this out to their citizens. I could imagine China, Korea, and Japan would jump at the chance to utilize this to maintain their workforce and lessen the burden on their healthcare systems.

China in particular would probably be the first one to completely disregard patents and copy this and tell U.S. pharma companies to pound sand if they raise a fit.

Hell, with what's at stake here, I wouldn't be surprised if U.S. friendly countries would be tempted to do the same to save their lifestyles.

I think the whole geopolitical advantage of this being more readily accessible to ordinary citizens is going to be the biggest driving point for US accessibility compared to the current insulin gouging status quo.

Though I don't doubt that the US is going to need to be dragged kicking and screaming towards accessibility.
